LSAT
New post209 posts in the last 30 days
Since I've started studying for the lsat for the past few months, i hadn't really focused on rc as my biggest area of weakness was LR and now as my exam is coming up in a few weeks, my rc inaccuracy has DOUBLED. I used to get from -6 to -8 and for the past two practice tests it's been -12 which is insane and it's freaking me out. As the rest is creeping up the anxiety and pressure is making my scores get even lower, barely past my diagnostic. I'm really panicked and would share any advice anyone has. I need to get 160+ for my dream law school and the last admission date they really consider is november:(. Now I'm just PT-ing low-mid 150s. :( I got 164 end of september but just steady decline since then :(

In this episode, Alex sits down with 7Sage LSAT tutor Nathalie to unpack the story behind her 174, from early struggles and study breakthroughs to a test day comedy of errors from hell. Hear how she navigated setbacks, refined her reasoning skills, and ultimately turned one of the most stressful test experiences imaginable into a success story.
Hello all. Just finishing the SA question module in the Core Curriculum, and it's kicking my butt. I'm wondering if it's best to basically start it again from the beginning and really try to grok it, or push on and come back later in the hopes that it will make more sense.
Or maybe it's like any new & intense thing: you start out blazing but at some point you hit your first plateau, and you either have to take a break and come back fresh, or just grind through it. Thoughts?
Which answer, if true, most strongly supports the weary student's concerns? :)
Hello! I would like to know, for those who have already taken the LSAT and are taking it again, is 7sage is an accurate depiction of what the test is going to be like on test day. I have been vacillating between LawHub and 7sage. I have noticed that LawHub is slightly differently from 7sage although I have ran across a question or two on 7sage from LawHub. Also there are no comparative passages on the LawHub preptests. I just want to avoid the shock.
Hey everyone,
I’m taking the LSAT in November, and I heard that during the online test it’s required to keep your hands visible in the camera frame at all times.
The issue is, I’m using a MacBook, and it’s basically impossible to do that comfortably. To make my hands visible, I’d have to tilt the screen so far down that I can barely see the screen to read the questions.
Has anyone else faced this problem? Any practical setup suggestions or ways to position the laptop or camera so it meets LSAC’s rules without making it impossible to take the test?
Thanks in advance for any tips!
So is there a way to have a custom study schedule please as in here:

Appreciate it.

Would someone correct my conditional logic steps that may lead to the condition that forms the answer:
Premise 1: "some gardening books published by Garden Path recommend tilling the soil and adding compost before starting a new garden on a site"
(domain) gardening books:
published by GPP <-s-> tilling AND compost (1)
Premise 2: "they (those same books) do not explain the difference between hot and cold composting."
published by GPP <-s-> / diff H&C composting (2)
Premise 3: "any gardening book that recommends adding compost is flawed if it does not explain at least the basics of composting"
(domain) gardening books :
/ basics composting -> flawed (3)
Conclusion: "some books published by Garden Path are flawed."
published by GPP <-s-> flawed (4)
(4) is the same as :
flawed <-s-> published by GPP (5)
combining (5) and (2)
flawed <-s-> published by GPP <-s-> / diff H&C composting (6)
based off of (6)
flawed <-s-> / diff H&C composting (7)
Combine (7) and (3)
/ basics composting ->/ diff H&C composting
contrapositive:
diff H&C composting -> basics composting
Based on the above D should be the answer perhaps?
Though certainly there is a flaw in there somewhere particularly with the <s> relationships inference etc.

im almost a week behind on my study plan schedule because I did less last week. Is there any way to sync the study plan to today's date so that im not chasing old lessons?
Is there any live class that focuses heavily on diagramming? This is probably my weakest area that is contributing to missed points for a higher score on the LSAT. In the search box for recorded classes, diagramming is not called out specifically and I do not want to revisit all of the foundations if I do not have to for this.
Thanks in advance/
I'm taking the LSAT at home for the first time (had a terrible in-person experience so trying this), but I was wondering if anyone with a gaming PC setup has been dinged for having multiple monitors, mic arms, etc.
I've made a second setup with just a laptop, XL gaming pad, and additional monitor as my "testing zone" but was wondering if secondary monitors/graphic mousepads are dinged and not allowed. Should I keep it to just the laptop and mouse?
Would love to hear about other ppl's experiences testing at home and how I can optimize my setup for seamless testing without having to rework my desk the day of.
It appears unlikely that Causal Reasoning is, on average, 22.7% of the LSAT. Is the "Avg. questions per test" metric bugged?
In the past few days of doing focused RC Drills, I notice most of my incorrect answers tend to be the 'Implied' question type. Any suggestions on what I should do to hone in on this skill and master it? Thank you!
Does anyone know of any classes from the tutors that would focus on difficult grammar parsing and double-negatives or other things like that? Those ones tend to trip me up, and I'm looking for a way to improve. All the classes seem to be focused on specific question types, but that may not be what I'm looking for.
Hey y'all, I'm studying for the November LSAT, which will be the final LSAT I will take. I feel pretty good about my LR, however my RC is really inconsistent. Sometimes I get -1/-2 and other times I get -7/-8. I want to drill efficiently this upcoming month and want advice on how others have improved their RC sections.
My practice consists of drilling separate passages (timed), where I focus on writing efficient and quick low res sums, and taking full length sections under timed conditions. I also try to join as many RC classes as I can. I'm trying to focus at least a full hour of RC everyday and can up that time.
How should I switch up my studying? Have there been effective practice methods that have worked for you? Would love any and all advice :)!

Everyone makes mistakes on the LSAT—but some are far more common (and costly) than others. In this episode, Henry and Rahela break down the five traps they see students fall into again and again, and share what separates average scorers from top performers. Whether you’re just starting or chasing that final score bump, you’ll want to hear this before your next practice test.
I recently completed the core curriculum and am starting a study process of a PT once a week and drilling based on the results of the previous test. However, I am two PT's in and what is killing me the most is just blanking on the stimulus and re-reading it over and over only to have time run out with 8-10 questions left to go.
Is there a specific strategy to focus on improving time, or is it just repetition? Should i grind through PT's anyway, or is it better to just do untimed drills?
I started studying for the LSAT on October 1st. I've just been doing the "Core Curriculum" lessons to get a good basis of understanding. Should I be mixing in practice drill questions even though I'm at the beginning of the lessons? If not, when should I begin to mix in the questions with the Core Curriculum lessons I do every day?
1 step forward, 2 steps back it seems
Hi everyone. I'm realizing that a significant portion of my missed points comes from my RC section. When I do it under unlimited time, I get a pretty good score but under timed conditions, I usually miss 10-12 questions every time. When I get to the last passage, I sometimes only have 5 minutes, so I feel like I guess a lot of the last couple questions. Is there any practical advice that anyone can share for getting better with timing and accuracy that has worked for them...other than doing drills over and over?
Thank you!!
I'm taking the lsat in two days and I'm currently freaking out because I remember Kevin said something about few and a few not being the same but I can't remember exactly what he said. I know I'm probably just overanalyzing stuff before the test but if anyone remembers, please help :))))
Hello! I recently completed the core curriculum and have now begun transitioning into focused practice. I've noticed that the prioritized drills 7Sage has laid out for me have tags that are attached to multiple question stems.
Curious to see if people have seen improvements by doing the drills as is (the way 7Sage designs it) or by manipulating the analytics in other ways, like singling out question stems (similar to how the curriculum did).
I'd appreciate thoughts on this and any personal experiences or tips as I grow closer to my test date, thank you!
I'm trying to increase my speed on easier questions so that I can have more time for hard questions, but then I ended up getting more questions wrong. Is this problem going to go away as I practice more? (when I do blind review with more time I'll get it right so I thought the only problem is that I did not give myself enough time to read more carefully and in more detail). Any suggestions?
Hello, I just did the diagnostic test and accidentally submitted before doing section 4 because I assumed that was the ungraded section but it was not. So I missed all the questions on that section. Was hoping to redo that section if possible to get an actual diagnostic score. Does anyone know how to do this?
